Wipe the Cache Partition.If you upgraded to lollipop you need to do this. What does it mean?. Apps have files with "histories about you". Imagine a bartender at a bar. Every day you go in the bar (opening an app) he says:Hey hello you are THAT guy. He knows you. I don't know how to make this simple,is like cleaning your room.
Why to do this?
My multitasking button (idk how is called) had a delay of 1 s when i wanted to browse multiple apps. Im a inpacient guy and i don't have a popup messaging app and i use whatsapp. Switching between YouCorn and Whatsapp was a hell. Now i wiped chache partition is A LOT BETTER and i can really feel the lollipop effects knocking hard on my door like Jehova's witnesses. Do this every week,moth,etc. but most importantly AFTER AN UPGRADE(SOFTWARE).
How?
turn off the phone. And no,funny guy,don't throw the battery away out of the phone,long press POWER button and power off. Then push VOLUME UP + HOME + POWER BUTTON untill Grand prime powere by.../Telekom#1Carrier360NoScope/Whatever pops up AND THEN LET GO THE POWER BUTTON. JUST THE POWER BUTTON,and still press Vol Up and Home until the menu appears. Scroll down with Vol up-up;Vol down-down at the WIPE PARTITION CACHE. And please don't play with your cat during this because some genius at Samsung Headquarters did put this option near FACTORY RESET. No joke,be very carefully. Power button to select the option,it shoild take 2 seconds,it will appear down left corner -Wiping cache then Cache wiped. The select the Reboot now option and enjoy your delicious Lollipop new software and press the Thanks button.
I really am sorry for any typos or smth like that,i'm surely this post is clear enough and if it's not,just Google it,there people with more neurons than me.
Thank you for tour tips ! But i think that we can wipe cash in settings on the storage tab

Hello, according to Sprint customer service, my Photon apparently came shipped associated with my Sprint Airrave. It will not activate now. The Sprint rep says that we need to do a hard reset, however, we can't do it without getting past the initial activation screen, and I can't get past that screen because it is associated with the airrave. A vicious circle.
Does anyone know how to do a hard reset without being in the phone software. Is there a combination of buttons to press?
I'd love to get this phone activated tonight as it will be an inconvenience to try to get to a sprint store.
Thanks!
Dan

Perform a factory reset using external keys
Note: It is highly recommended you use the above factory reset using the settings. Making a mistake using the factory reset using external key method could have very bad consequences.
If you are unable to navigate through the menu to perform a factory data reset, you can follow the steps outlined below:
Power off the phone, press and hold volume down button, press power button
Screen will come up with "Fastboot", press Vol down key to cycle through choices until you get "Android Recovery", then press Vol up key
Wait for the "triangle ! / Android" screen then go on to step 4
Press both Vol up and Vol down key simultaneously. A menu will come up
Tap on Vol down key until "wipe data/factory reset" is highlighted, and tap Power key. Another Confirmation screen will come. Tap on Vol down key until coming to Yes and tap Power key
After userdata is cleared, the "reboot system now" option will be highlighted by Default. Tap Power key
Phone will reboot to initial setup screen.
Power down
Hold volume down and power until you see fastboot
Press volume down until you see Android Recovery
Press volume up
When the triangle pops up hold volume down and press power(took me about a minute of pressing for a response)
A menu will pop up, scroll down with volume to factory reset and push the power button
Reboot and you should be good to go

Thank you for your response!
I got as far as the triangle, but no further. I've tried twice, but will keep trying. Let me know if you have other ideas.
Thanks!

Just to confirm, at the triangle I hold volume down and press power.
Does this mean press and hold power or press the power button repeatedly? I've tried both for more than a minute (maybe more than two). Perhaps I'll try for longer.
UPDATE:
I seem to have gotten it to work by pressing both the up and down volume buttons at the same time from the screen with the triangle.
Thanks for your help!

Click to collapse
That would explain why I was having problems. Thanks. Thanks for updating the op too so other people can see.

Hello. i dindn't where to post my question. My i9300 with foxfound is pretty laggy, when i push home button to wake the device it takes 2-3 seconds, or if i push power button aproximative the same time. It's very frustating, on my old phono it doesn't appera this problem, but on a device that cost a lot it takes ages to make minimal task, like unlock, open agenda/dialer, open various apps, it should be instant!!!
hello,for the home button lag,its a common issue because the phone waits you to hold short for S-VOICE, you can disable S-VOICE like this: enter in apps, select s-voice, in s-voice settings and uncheck open via home key and use location data hope it helped, as for the other lag,idk, i never faced...maybe do a factory data reset
I have a problem with my truesmart I have a keyboard that stays on permanently , I cannot get rid of it it comes up across the clock like it wantsme to type something in the box , I cannot get into anything else on the watch , I have tried taking the battery out but it still comes back it just wont go and I cant use the watch"
Pull the battery
Put battery in
Hold down both buttons (this gets you to recovery)
If you see no menu on the screen, hit the power button
In the menu use the back button to scroll down to factory reset
Hit the power button to select
You will loose what ever apps and data you put on the watch but this should fix it. If not your options are to either flash a ROM or send it back to Omate.
I have installed the newest Malaysk ROM on my HU. On the picture attached you can see the Advanced Power Menu like it should be. In my case there is only Reboot after long pressing the button on the top right. Does it belong to the launcher? If I am pressing the button only short my device turns black, but the knobs are still lightning (also you can hear the radio). It seems that the device is hanging up so I had to press the reset button.
Also I want to know If its possible to shutdown the unit completely. Without having connected the ACC wire.
I have the same question about the pwer menu. Like you I only get one option.
I just installed the Octane Fitness App, Smartlink. After running it for a few minutes, it locked up. Now when I press on the screen for anything, it doesn't work. Only the hard buttons work. I tried rebooting, but it reloads this buggy app and then the same problem happens over again. Does anyone have any advice on how to get it to not load the app so I can uninstall it? Am I going to have to do a factory reset and if so, how do I do one on this tablet? I can't find info anywhere and Samsung support is utterly useless.
Thank you.
Factory reset:
Power Tablet Off
Press and hold: Home + Volume Up + Power until the recovery screen loads
Select Factory Reset and follow on-screen prompts
